The bartender said this really wasn’t that different than their regular. Triple simply means they use three varieties instead of two. Big deal. In comparision with their regular PA, this has much much more tangerine notes and malt biscuitiness than their regular. Not bad, but maybe I prefer the regular. It is more of a "normal" ie. less tangerines, Pale Ale.

I was surprised to see a fruit beer released in the winter time until I saw the ABV, then it made more sense. Golden amber color, nice raspberry and wheat nose. Smooth medium body with great raspberry character and very well balanced. Somewhat reminiscent of a raspberry liquer, but without the strong alcholic presence. Light dry raspberry finish. Interesting and well made take on a summer beer.

Very cloudy, golden color, clovey cinnamon nose with a touch of bananas. Light spritzy mouth with a touch of bananas, cloves, smoke and a refreshing light smokey finish. Interesting stuff.

Dark brown color. Sweet malty nose with a touch of soft toffee, milk chocolate and PNW hops. Mouth has great depth; toffee, milk chocolate, caramel, hazelnuts, but very carbonated (on cask this was amazing!). Toffee, nutty caramel finish. Top notch!
